Inspire Change on World Water Day 2019

Your influence can bring clean water to the world.

 

Every 60 seconds, a child dies from a preventable water-related disease. But just $50 provides one child with clean water for life. A life like Galmo’s. Every day, Galmo travels with her mother to collect water at this muddy pond. She fills her 40-pound water jug and returns for the long walk home. The water makes Galmo and her family sick. Gathering it every day exposes her to danger and keeps her out of school.

You can change life for girls like Galmo. This World Water Day, will you ask your social followers to Give50 and give clean water to one child in Ethiopia?

Here’s how you can help:

  1. Post on World Water Day (3/22). Get creative—inspire people to make a difference!
  2. Share a link to lifewater.org/give50. 
  3. Tag @lifewaterinternational on Facebook and Instagram or @Lifewater on Twitter and use the hashtag #Give50.

 

Your posts and influence can be the reason that 1,000 children in five villages in Ethiopia experience the hope, health, and life made possible by clean water and sanitation.
